" bhakti bliss...the Vedas say to stop procrastinating. Don’t say you will do it tomorrow, and don’t say you will even do it today. Do it now right now! Do it immediately. You may trust all else, but don’t trust this human body. Even God realised Saints must leave this world. Jagadguru Shankaracharya died when he was 32 years old. Gauranga Mahaprabhu left when he was 48 years old. Even they left af...ter the determined time for their descension was over.

This world is like an inn. In an inn, everyone stays in separate rooms. A person stays there for four days, for ten days, for one day, some for just two hours! When his time is up, he leaves.

When you travel on a train, there are 50 stations on that line. When a person’s station comes, he gets down from the train. If you were to say to someone, “Oh, why are you going? I will be left alone!” “But my station has come. I must get down. If you wish, then come with me.” “Oh, no. My station is still quite far from here.”

When a son dies before his father, the father thinks, “What injustice!” This is not injustice. It is God’s law that you can’t stay any longer than the time allotted for this birth. When that time comes, you must go, and no one knows when that will come.

Even so, when this same father lights the funeral pyre for his own son, he loses all awareness and thinks, “I’m not going to die soon.” Stop this kind of thinking, otherwise whatever has happened in the past will keep on happening.
To receive a human birth is very rare. Even if you receive this, finding someone to guide you on the right path is very rare. If you were to find a true spiritual guide, then what grace is left for you to attain? The only grace left to attain is your own. But we say, “I’ll start tomorrow.”Do not say, “Tomorrow I will start practicing devotion.” Don’t say this and don’t think this. Who knows if you will live to see tomorrow? You could go to sleep tonight and if your time is up, in the morning you will be no more. We see this kind of thing happening every day. it will be too late to do anything.“In the twinkling of an eye, a person’s life could come to an end. Why then are you postponing for the future? What power do you possess that you are so proud of that you will be able to stop death?”so start hare krishna maha manthra now... -radhekrishna..........krishna guruvayurpuresha.....
